Customer Reviews

Superb Value

To me, this was a pig in a poke, initially. It turned out to be a fabulous buy. These bras are high quality and, if luck would have it, fit me extraordinarily well. If I could, I would purchase several more as they are the most comfortable bras I have ever worn; I am 64 years old.

Great...until you wash it.

**COULDN'T CHANGE ORIGINAL STAR RATING--I'D NOW GIVE IT NO MORE THAN 3!!!

i started buying VF bras via Amazon in 2007 & have never been disappointed; when i received this, i couldn't say enough about how AMAZING this bra was (hence the 5 stars i'd first chosen). however, this bra immediately lost its support (excellent when i was trying it on) as soon as it had its first wash. the wires began to pinch at the side as well, and the straps have to be newly tightened with each wear. while i still wear it when i have to (when laundry's piled up), i spend the day going to the bathroom to "readjust the girls." but i bought the bra at under $9 so figure i can't expect too much better... Size 36DD, Star White

Cute and comfy

It's hard to find bras I consider "cute" in my size. 36C seems to be the cutoff for cute vs practical styling. The lace detailing on the cups makes me feel pretty wearing this bra, while it still supports me excellently. The side shaping panel eliminates the ugly side bulge I can get with other bras, and the microfiber is super-comfortable. I got one of them, wore it for about a month, then bought seven more when I realized I was doing laundry way more often so I could wear the bra more often. The one negative I've noticed is that at the end of a long, active day, the strap adjustment sometimes slips a little, but it's never been more than 1/2".
